Privacy policy
Keeping things simple: what happens to your data?
My privacy policy is very simple. If you share information with me through this website it will stay with me. It will not be shared with any third parties without your explicit consent (but please note that as this is a Squarespace website, the nice folks at Squarespace can see some user data).
Your data will only be used for the purpose stated when you shared it. In all of my communications with you I will give you the option to opt-out of further communications or to delete your details permanently.
What does this mean?
There are four ways to provide information through this website: by filling out the contact form on the Contact page, by signing up for blog post updates, by signing up for The Copy Prescription email newsletter, or by purchasing a service via the cart.
If you complete a contact form, I will use that information to contact you (that’s kind of the point!). If you’ve asked me to contact you about work, I’ll use your email address to do that and then we’ll continue our conversation by email.
If you sign up to receive email or blog post updates I will add you to my email distribution list and will contact you whenever I have blog or related content that matches your interests. Every email contact will have an unsubscribe option so you will be in control. I use MailChimp to manage my email list.
If you make a cart purchase (such as a Copy Health Check website review), the information you provide will be processed by the relevant payment processor (Stripe or PayPal, plus a credit or debit card provider if applicable). I will see your billing information and IP address but will not have access to any credit card details. I have to retain this information for accounting purposes. Note that those third parties mentioned above will have access to your information. You should contact them directly if you have any concerns.
If you purchase a Copy Health Check website review, you will be asked to provide information via Typeform in order for your review to be carried out. Typeform will have access to this information. Again, you should contact them directly if you have any concerns.
If you would like me to delete the information I hold at any time I will gladly do so. Simply email me with the request.
By ‘I’, ‘we’, ‘me’, I mean me, Louise Shanahan, the person behind The Copy Prescription, and my trusted website designer, who occasionally accesses the nuts and bolts of the website to help keep things running smoothly. No other staff will see your information.
I will let you know if I update this privacy policy.
Cookies
Like all Squarespace sites, this site uses cookies.
Cookies are tiny text files placed on your hard drive so that my server can see when you visit my site. It’s completely anonymised though – you can’t be identified.
For you, it means the site will remember any preferences you’ve stated and load faster each time you visit.
For me, it gives the option to track information such as how many people are looking at my website and how long they’re spending on different pages, so I can delete stuff that no one looks at and make the website better!
You can disable cookies in your browser.
